Come on now. Pancakes are easy and delivery from the stove to the plate is short.

No way! You have been misinformed!

I had chocolate chips in mine this morning!

 

Now I want pancakes...darn you!

Guess it's time to order some Blueberry ones, that way I get some fruit with them.

Yes, breakfast delivery is available, the perks of living right near a big university. See Home | Eggfast

You never know when you'll need emergency pancakes!

Wow instant pancakes, that is just so wrong in so many ways. :frown2:

Real pancakes.... :drool

Hey Jim that concrete pancake batter would make a wonderful foundation for the new garage.

 

Nathan, I'll bring you a package of McCutcheon"s pancake mix to MOTD. All you add is "water" and if you don't have that, contact MM right away.

Hah, one of my customers, we did the metalwork in their place.....

 

If one has the ingredients in house, yes.

 

Come on now, that's only true about WAFFLES and cleaning up the waffle iron.

BEST EVER WAFFLES OR PANCAKES
1 3/4 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. corn meal (optional)
2 eggs, separated
5 tbsp. sugar
1 cup buttermilk, plain yogurt or sour cream
1 cup milk
6 tbsp. melted butter or shortening

You can make this ahead of time and store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator so that it will be ready for breakfast each morning.

Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Whip egg whites, set aside. Beat egg yolks with sugar and stir in milk. Beat in flour mixture. Add melted butter or shortening.

When thoroughly combined, fold in beaten egg whites.

If batter is too thin, add a tablespoon of flour; if batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of extra milk, adjusting the batter until it has the consistency of very heavy cream. The batter may thicken upon standing and may require adjustment again.

Serve dotted with butter, drizzled with maple syrup or topped with a spoonful of marmalade or fruit.

Variation: Once batter is on the griddle, add fruit such as blueberries, strawberries or bananas.

 

I would need the following ingredients....

flour
baking powder
baking soda
buttermilk, plain yogurt or sour cream
milk

So you can see why I would order breakfast.

 

Not if they are made in Colorado, it's the altitude!

 

Pancakes are decidedly NOT junk food. Especially when you have them with loads of butter, real Vermont maple syrup & lots of bacon. :drool

Whomever told you that knows nothing about a balanced silverback diet. :frown2:

 

Or peanut butter, mmmm. Peanut butter and strawberry jam! Protein and fruit!

 

The trick is to not over mix. If you leave the batter lumpy, the pancakes will be light and fluffy. WASH the bowl you mixed the batter in RIGHT AWAY. In twenty minutes it will set up like concrete.
